I gave my AP class one last challenge... illustrate the game of rock, paper, scissors.  After a walk outside to gather rocks students began to dream up these wild ways in which the game could be played out. The media was open to the students and each student sketched out their ideas first to work out composition. Can you tell who wins in each piece?

Drawing & Painting II students just completed their last painting project. We used spray paint and created large stencils to use as inspiration. Students built up the surface using different plastic stencils to create textures. Students added text to accompany their image. Great job!
